Armalon

(image)

An Armalon is a more defensively oriented Athlon with a thicker armor and bigger pincers, which are used for slow but powerful attacks. Dodging is a little problematic for an Armalon, but ,due to its durability, not really needed. An Armalon prefers to use his pincers for powerful attacks, either by using them for a powerful bite or by delivering a crushing blow. As hard as its armor is, as fragile it is to extreme temperatures, such as those caused by fire or cold magic.

Quotes:
"Even four shots aren't killing this beast! I guess we're lucky we don't have to face these things on close range."
- Dwarvish Thunderguard

"You would think, that backstabing is a way to get through their armor, but before you find something you could call a back you will most likely find yourself a few meters away and hoping your own back survived."
- Human Rogue

"Things like this are the reason why we have to keep those weakl archers! Why are these goddamn things so weak to fire arrows, WHY???"
- (very annoyed) Orcish Warrior
